ANALYZING THE IMPACT OF THE 4K MODEL ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENTS' MATHEMATICAL COMPETENCIES BASED ON A MULTIFACTOR REGRESSION MODEL

In the landscape of 21st-century education, mathematical proficiency is no longer defined solely by arithmetic speed but by integrated cognitive and social competencies. This study examines the influence of the 4K model—Creativity, Critical Thinking, Communication, and Collaboration—on the mathematical achievement of secondary school students. Utilizing a multifactor analytical approach, the research evaluates how these four distinct yet interrelated skills contribute to solving complex mathematical problems. Data gathered from two hundred and fifty students suggest that while all four components are positive predictors of success, Critical Thinking and Collaboration hold the most significant weight. This paper argues for a pedagogical shift that treats mathematical learning as a multi-dimensional process, providing empirical evidence that "soft skills" are essential drivers of "hard" mathematical outcomes.在21世纪教育格局下，数学素养的界定不再仅以算术运算速度为单一标尺，而是以整合性认知能力与社会能力为核心依据。本研究围绕4K模型——创造力（Creativity）、批判性思维（Critical Thinking）、沟通能力（Communication）与协作能力（Collaboration）——对中学生数学学业成就的影响展开探究。本研究采用多因素分析范式，评估这四项既相互独立又紧密关联的技能如何助力复杂数学问题的求解过程。基于250名学生的调研数据显示，尽管四项要素均为学业成功的正向预测因子，但批判性思维与协作能力的预测权重最为显著。本研究倡导推动教学范式转型，将数学学习视作多维度的综合过程，并通过实证数据证实，“软技能”是驱动“硬核”数学学习成果的核心动因。
